Choir

St. Stephen’s has two choirs. The 10:30 service choir rehearses every Thursday evening from 7:30-9:30 in the parish hall, plus Sunday mornings at 9:30am in preparation for the 10:30 service. Its repertoire is broad, including chant and other early church music, gospel, and modern. The Misa Alegria choir rehearses Monday evenings.

A group of parishioners meet monthly the third Wednesday of each month to share a meal and to talk about issues related to caring for aging loved ones–a safe place to talk about things that most people who don’t have aging loved ones want to hear about. For more information, email the church office.
